Is There Anyone Out There?
Sometimes when I write
I feel my words
Drifting in
And out
Of this reality
Into another.
I constantly find myself
Asking if anyone can hear me.
There are things
That I will never say
Never write
Never think about again.
I try to express myself
But words always
Hold more meaning
Than anyone I know
Could even possibly
Understand.
So when I ask if there
Is anyone out there,
If anyone can hear me,
I'm really hoping with
All that I am
That someone will understand.
I pray to God that
You hear my
Broken promises,
My warnings,
My advice,
My screams.
Because I am screaming
Out of fear
and pain
and joy
and laughter
and life.
So please, please tell me
If there's anyone out there
Who can hear me,
Who can speak my language,
Who will understand
The words I can't find anymore.
